Feedback and comment are welcome. ) The next day early morning at the police Headquarter, Inspector Aziz, a special police unit personnel were summoned by the Inspector-General of Police (IGP) Hamid to his office. As Inspector Aziz closed the office door and turn around and salute him, they then begin to converse. IGP Hamid: “I received an unusual request from different departments like border custom, foreign relationship, the central bank, and even the military intelligence to follow this guy in the file.” He then takes the file on his desk and passes it to Inspector Aziz to read. Inspector Aziz: “That is a lot of department attention. Do I go and arrest him? It does not make sense to call me for that.” As Inspector Aziz takes the file from IGP Hamid. IGP Hamid: “I been told to assign you to “watch” over him to prevent International Incident.” Inspector Aziz: “International Incident? What causes all this?” IGP Hamid: “His shop has been attacked yesterday by an unknown party. The other departments updated me that some oversea businessmen, and a British General which was identified by our custom department just check-in at our airport custom counter last 24 hours. he declares to have an appointment with Isaac but he is not on official duty. Our STAFOC department reported that Isaac has come in contact with Elias, one of the mob bosses. There was news about local powerful business people came in contact with him as well.” He then passes to Inspector Aziz another file containing the custom record showing the British General name on it. And then continue “You can understand how serious the situation if any of them especially the General get attacked. You are to monitor and act as you see fit.” Inspector Aziz: “yes, sir.”, then salute him and leave the office. After Inspector Aziz leaves the IGP Hamid office, he begins reading the report as he prepares to immediately interview Isaac as he is still in the building waiting for him. Once the interview is done, Inspector Aziz gives Isaac his contact number to call him if he needs any assistance. He attempted to ask Isaac Lim to let him know what cause the incident. The Only thing Isaac told him is a collection he can’t reveal at the moment. After Isaac leaves, Inspector Aziz begins to investigate the case with the handphone Isaac manages to take from the attacker.
